Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] gnuradio on android

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Mostafa,
having read the feature sheet of QXDM, it says it can analyze the strength of specific preambles, and configure Qualcom chipsets; I really don't see how this matches up very well with what SDR is in the context of GNU Radio. It really seems more like a statistical/administration tool than a radio interface.

However, if you have experience with the protocols and interfaces that QXDM is based upon, obviously, GNU Radio can only profit from having interfaces to more hardware :) so go wild and write something that makes GNU Radio talk to Qualcomm chipsets! Be very aware, however, that Android is very strict with giving applications access to raw hardware, so this might not be something that the average user might ever run on his/her handset.

Best regards,
Marcus

Thank you for your response. I don't want to discuss something here that are out of scope of GNURadio, however, I found some useful Qualcomm drivers (software) such as: "QXDM" which make it possible to analyze (I really thing everything is possible) different signals (from GSM to LTE or 4G).

For information see [1] and the attachment .

any idea?

Best,

Hi Mostafa,

To be specific, is it possible to, for instance, use mobile (or tablet) hardware to capture or send signals with GNURadio on it (instead of using an external USRP)?  

no, mobile phones don't have "raw" sample access to their radio chips, since these were generally not designed to do that.

Best regards,
Marcus

Hi 

I'm looking for "GNURadio on android" applications. I mean what kind stuffs already can I do with GNURadio on android? I have not tried the process of making GNURadio on a mobile device since I don't know what's its application.

To be specific, is it possible to, for instance, use mobile (or tablet) hardware to capture or send signals with GNURadio on it (instead of using an external USRP)?  

Thanks in advance for any clarification,

Mostafa
